You're my hero man, I had no idea you could just remove the connector pins like this! Also, future info in case anybody comes by hoping to do this swap someday: you don't need the entire DOHC gauge cluster, you only need the tach. Google up on the swap and you'll find some rather complete guides on how to transplant your DE into your 89-90, as well as lists of everything you'll need.
J.S. I like how you take the time to show and explain. You make it friendly. Instead of like your better then anyone else. I like your style and can appreciate how you are passing on the information. I've just finished watching step one and going to look at step 2
this was incredibly helpful video! i’ve spent weeks looking on the internet for an explanation of the gauge cluster and this video is exactly what i needed! i bought an 89 240sx that was swapped with a dohc ka24det and i’ve been going crazy trying to figure out what the hell the previous owner did. thank you again!
I was under the impression that I could run any engine with my ms2pnp and I recently did a motor swap ka24e to ka24de. Is this how I configure the megasquirt to run the ka24de? The ka24e is from a 1991 d21 and the wiring harness end connectors are different when comparing the two motors. Will my megasquirt not work with my build because of the ka24de s year? Can I buy new connectors and splice into the ka24e harness? What do I do? I would hate to not be able use my megasquirt pnp2.
Thumbs up for the video. I have an m54 swap in my 240sx and I want wire up the gauge cluster mainly for the RPM and speed and fuel I have the m54 bmw drive train motor and tranny and I want to use the same cluster or the BMW one if I can. Any Idea you might have. Much thanks.
HI, IM FROM MEXICO! THE VIDEO WAS GREAT! MY SWAPT WAS COMPLETE, THANK A LOT!!! BUT I NEED TO SWAP THE LOW HARNES BECAUSE THE OTHER MOTOR WERE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION!!!!!
Hey Josh, for now I'll be switching my SOHC dash and cluster to the s14 DOHC Dash and Cluster. Will I still need to re-pin the same way? Or is it just the opposite way you did it in this video?
+Josh Smith im making a website on 240sx motor swaps. May i use your screenshot of the two wire harness clips together? I would credit you under the picture & link the picture to this video of course
@flyguyaaron Hey if you can get the DOHC dash plug to plug into your SOHC chassis dash plug LMK I would love to know. lol no seriously the SOHC dash plug is used because your using the SOHC chassis. It will make perfect sence when you go to install your harnewss into the car.
i have a question, im wiring my bottom harness but i have no clue which wire plugs into the starter, unless the guy i bought the harness from cut it. Or do i plug the starter into the fuse box instead?
Hey I need some help. The previous owner cut the dash interface out and I cant figure out what goes where for the new interface plug theres more wire on the car side and 3 different black wires please as se help if you can I'm using a dohc body and a dohc interface plug thanks in advance
so when swapping to dohc ka you can still use the sohc ecu? or what? we bought a car only to realise the guy we bought it from did horrible wiring job.. we need help asap. the car just randomly turned off halfway
do you know we're I could buy new pins the guy that owned the car before me decided to cut a dash harness plug in I'm looking to get new plugins so I can use the plug again I have no idea were I can buy the correct pins
@09GroundZero well ifs its a s13 you just need to pay a ttention to the video I explain what wires go were and are for what on each harness - just put the wires where they should go - if its a s14 its not worth the wiring hassle IMO
Ok I am so cocfused, i just did the swap to DOHC and have the DOHC harness and ecu, why would I be putting the pins into the SOHC connector? wouldnt I be swapping the connector to the brown DOHC one?
what part will i need if i am doing a 95 obd2 swap into my 1990 shell. i have read u will need the 91-93 intake manifold, a 91-93 harness with ecu and the dizzy. are these parts correct?
Unfortunately no...we stopped making these videos along time ago. I am putting these up for guys for free 👍🏼 there could possibly be more videos to come in the future depending on how life goes...
@@JDSPerformance25 thanks for the videos and your quick reply, I can't find any wiring swap information for the SR20VET into a B13 basically Nisan 01-0i Xtrail into a 91-94 Sentra
hey i got a really important question and i really need help. my ka has been running on 3 cylinders i found out that its the wiring for injector #2 its the ground so i got new wire and ran it directly to the ECU, still didnt really run right. idk what to do??? is it worth buying a whole new harness or can i just fix it??? cuz why buy a whole new harness when its just one wire?? please help thankss!
I have a whole 350z interior including gauges. I'm trying to splice the 2 harnesses together from my 240 to 350. I have the service Manuel for 350z and can't get it to work. Can you help or suggest anything?
Hy i am from greece can you help me please.i have a toyota corolla ke 35 with a sr 20det.tacho and fuel does not work.i have all the wiring of s13 i don't have cut anything
I don't have mechanical problem speedometer is working also and the fuel guides does not work the tachometer and the temperature it's electrical problem. Thank you for your time, please if you can tell me something for the electrical problem I will appreciate
@@nikarosprokakias8396 I b am NC sorry but you need to check your wiring diagram from your factory service manual for your chassis and also the engine. To determine what wires are what wires etc... This takes alot of time. You will get it soon 👍🏻
This has to be the worst explanation on how to do this ever. What the fuck am I supposed to do to get the connector to remove? I've slid the pick tool down the connector a million times and it will NOT come out.

Do you make a adapter plug that I could do a plug and play with on my s13 sohc so I could run my extra dohc and still go back to sohc later? 😊
Sorry I do not.
Hey Josh, for now I'll be switching my SOHC dash and cluster to the s14 DOHC Dash and Cluster. Will I still need to re-pin the same way? Or is it just the opposite way you did it in this video?
Great video
Thanks!
Thank you. Very helpful!
@86kd27 Yes the KA24DE is the DHOC KA motor 91-94 and the KA24E is the SOHC KA motor 89-91 - You cannot swap a DE head on a E motor
Do I need a dohc guage cluster to use my engine
Light wire? I need it for smog. Thanks!
Your quite welcome. .. but you might want to thank your mom and dad for making such a bright child. ..

+ijustwant2drift yes you sure can. thanks for asking!
+Josh Smith awesome man thanks!
Frisky Feels what’s the website ?
cool vid!! is this good for the s14 dohc to s13 sohc swap as well?

Wish so could but I honestly have no clue
@@JDSPerformance25 awe man thanks, appreciate the reply
The starter had a connector on it and the transmission harness has a connector for the starter too
so when swapping to dohc ka you can still use the sohc ecu? or what? we bought a car only to realise the guy we bought it from did horrible wiring job.. we need help asap. the car just randomly turned off halfway
FaRy907 no you need a dual cam ecu
Good info. Thank ya kindly!
does this also apply to the gauge cluster swap on the nissan hardbody?
do you know we're I could buy new pins the guy that owned the car before me decided to cut a dash harness plug in I'm looking to get new plugins so I can use the plug again I have no idea were I can buy the correct pins
Will this work for a sr20de DOHC
Hey I have a question.. So if I had the sohc ka24e motor, is it possible to swap the head from a ka24de (i believe that's the dohc motor)?
@09GroundZero well ifs its a s13 you just need to pay a ttention to the video I explain what wires go were and are for what on each harness - just put the wires where they should go - if its a s14 its not worth the wiring hassle IMO

To switch from sohc to dohc could you just swap the engine head or do you have to swap the whole engine........ I'm an amateur
hey i got a really important question and i really need help.
my ka has been running on 3 cylinders i found out that its the wiring for injector #2 its the ground so i got new wire and ran it directly to the ECU, still didnt really run right. idk what to do??? is it worth buying a whole new harness or can i just fix it??? cuz why buy a whole new harness when its just one wire?? please help thankss!
my harness spits the yellow with RED not yellow with GREEN????
i have a 1998 ka swap complete from driveshaft to radiator , i want to wire it in a s13 , can you help me on this?
mike meyer did you ever find any info on that?
Mine has a b/w instead of Y/g. Does it mean i need to cut in to the y/g on ceu connector and create a new connection to the dash wires ?
You will have to check the wiring diagram for you car in the FSM
I have a whole 350z interior including gauges. I'm trying to splice the 2 harnesses together from my 240 to 350. I have the service Manuel for 350z and can't get it to work. Can you help or suggest anything?
I have never done. . I'm sure it can be fine but there will be allot of work involved. ..
On mine the Yellow/Red splits into 2 and not the Yellow/Green...Is that an issue?
Hy i am from greece can you help me please.i have a toyota corolla ke 35 with a sr 20det.tacho and fuel does not work.i have all the wiring of s13 i don't have cut anything
Can you send me a mail so I send you some photos and video;?
Sorry buddy I am not a mechanic
I don't have mechanical problem speedometer is working also and the fuel guides does not work the tachometer and the temperature it's electrical problem. Thank you for your time, please if you can tell me something for the electrical problem I will appreciate
@@nikarosprokakias8396 I b am NC sorry but you need to check your wiring diagram from your factory service manual for your chassis and also the engine. To determine what wires are what wires etc... This takes alot of time. You will get it soon 👍🏻
do you have the pinout for nissan ka20 euc if yes can i get it.
Sorry I don’t.
@@JDSPerformance25 ok thanks
I need a full wiring system how can I get one
What are the rest of the wires used for?
It’s all explained in the video. Left over wires are not needed. 👍🏻
Does this work with d21 sohc
You will need to check the FSM to determine what wires go where.
You will need the DOHC cluster
If i have Heads up Display, will it be affected at all?
Hey man can u help me out please I can pay u even
Well maybe you don't have enough skill to perform an easy task?
This has to be the worst explanation on how to do this ever. What the fuck am I supposed to do to get the connector to remove? I've slid the pick tool down the connector a million times and it will NOT come out.
Drew Wright looks like you need to give up i figured it out in 5 minutes lol you got to feel around and drag the clip down then the wire pops out
